Aruba compatible R9Y49A Description
EdgeOptic's R9Y49A compatible is an HPE Aruba-coded version of the EdgeOptic 1000M-SFP-T multi-vendor 10/100/1000BASE-T copper SFP transceiver. It matches the form factor, electrical interface, and reach of the original HPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect 1000BASE-T copper SFP, so it drops into the same RJ45 SFP ports on EdgeConnect SD-WAN gateways. The R9Y49A is a copper twisted-pair module, not a fiber optic part.
The transceiver runs over unshielded twisted-pair cable, with up to 100 m of reach on Cat 5, Cat 5e, or Cat 6. The RJ45 connector accepts standard structured cabling, and the tri-speed chipset auto-negotiates 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T, the Gigabit rate built to IEEE 802.3ab, with Auto MDI/MDI-X handling straight or crossover wiring. Operation falls in the commercial 0 to 70 degrees Celsius range on a single +3.3 V supply, and digital diagnostics monitoring is supported. The build follows the SFP Multi-Source Agreement and the INF-8074i specification.
R9Y49A sits in the HPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect SD-WAN gateway transceiver family, the copper RJ45 option for branch-site WAN and LAN uplinks where the access run is twisted-pair cabling. The module is distinct from the ArubaOS-CX campus copper SFP line, which uses the JL-prefix ordering codes. Branch deployments with EdgeConnect Enterprise gateways accept this module under the R9Y49A code for connecting to upstream carrier handoffs and local switches.
EdgeOptic codes the EEPROM with HPE Aruba-recognized identity data so the module is accepted on EdgeConnect SD-WAN gateways with standard SFP host ports. Works on HPE Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN gateways wherever the original R9Y49A is specified. Gateway software level and supported transceiver lists vary by model and release, so verify the module against the EdgeConnect documentation or release notes for the specific gateway and software version before deployment.
Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor networking platforms, the R9Y49A compatible carries CE and RoHS certification and meets the SFP Multi-Source Agreement. It ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty. For deployment questions, contact our sales team.
